There are two main methods to find your BMR / AMR. The following is a formula that gives a fairly accurate estimate.

This is for women:

655 + [4.36 x weight in pounds] + [4.32 x height in inches] - [4.7 x age] = BMR

This is for men:

66 + [6.22 x weight in pounds] + [12.7 x height in inches] - [6.8 x age] = BMR

Don't forget to calculate your activity level!

_____ (BMR) x ____(activity rating/see below) = AMR (total calories per day)

Activity rating:

1.3 lightly active (normal every day activities)
1.4 moderately active (exercise 3 to 4 times a week)
1.6 very active (exercise more than 4 times a week)
1.8 extremely active (exercise 6 to 7 times a week for more than an hour in duration)

Another method is to record all calories you eat for an entire week. If you remain the same weight at the end of the week, divide the number of calories by 7 (days in the week) and the answer will be the amount of calories you need each day to remain the same weight.
